Trainer Pleads Guilty To Drunken Driving

May 16, 1989

Kevin Rooney, fired as heavyweight champion Mike Tyson`s trainer in December, pleaded guilty Monday to a misdemeanor drunken driving charge and was fined $350. Rooney also was ordered to pay $500 restitution to the owner of the car he collided with. Rooney, 32, was arrested on drunken driving charges on Dec. 28 when he pulled his car out of a parking space in midtown New York City. As he was pulling out, he collided with a car driven by Manhattan assistant district attorney Andrew Rosenweig.
